I removed my center console and need the piece of carpet that goes there on the stripper model boxster($180 from porsche). I was wondering if anyone knew of an aftermarket carpet kit for the 986 that would help shed some weight from the stock heavy foam backed pieces, and maybe cover the console area at the same time. If anyone wants to chime in on other weight saving tricks too, please do. I am mainly interested in ones that leave everything functional but remove something hidden or replace something that's there with something lighter, as this is for a street/track car that needs to look somewhat stock for autocross rules. I already have replaced both seats with the fiberglass recaro buckets, commonly referred to as 996 GT3 seats, even though none of the GT3s I've seen came with them(they were available on all 996s and boxster 986s)which saved 50 lbs or so.
